Johnson's Soul Food Diner, Orlando

Oh man, that was good. It's not often that I get the chance to have Southern food. But this morning there was a break in the program, so I popped out to get a quick bite at Johnson's (595 West Church Street Suite E, 407-841-0717), which is apparently pretty well known around here.

I opted for the fried catfish, which was more lightly breaded than I thought it would be, and it hardly needed that Southern hot sauce and spicy vinegar that was available on each table. My sides of collard greens, deep-fried okra, and a Southern bean mix all were cleared in seconds too, as was that crumbly sweet corn bread. Mmm...simple and delicious comfort food indeed.
